Leo Bishop made his money the "old fashioned" way. He worked hard for it, saved it, and eventually in 1917 he bought a flour mill. This became Bishop Milling Company and it was the finest small mill in all of Canada. It had a milling capacity of 180 barrels daily and the elevator storage capacity was 70,000 bushels of Northern wheat. He was a very sucessful businessman and this enabled him to take his hockey team, The Battleford Millers, to Japan.
